In my Compose Multiplatform app, an iOS API I am interested about is not available via kotlin multiplatform.

Is there a way to write it in Swift and use the class from kotlin?

If this is not the best channel to ask, let me know

Write it in in Obj-c compatible Swift. Pack as a library and add the library to iosMain()

figured it out. Turns out I can use Kotlin code from Swift in my Compose app.

had to import ComposeApp and rebuild the project on xcode, otherwise xcode doesnt pick it up

Hey Alex! its good to know that! can you give me an example of why you need that? if you need an iOS API why you need to import ComposeApp from xcode? Thanks

because of the wiring. made a kotlin interface, implemented it in Swift, got a shared object between kotlin <-> swift to pass the reference

I wrote a piece on this a while back here also, with a straightforward example.

I came across that article but seemed really complicated for me

Fair point, I tried to cover quite a number of areas in that write up.
